Posted on April 24, 2020 by Sawbill Ice Palooza! 4/24/20 – The annual ice countdown has begun! Late this afternoon I measured 22″ of mostly solid ice. -JessicaThe lack of slush has been a happy surprise as of late. It’s made for perfect lake walking conditions, rather than the usual slushy slog.Crew member Brian Henry made us this handy ice measuring stick over the winter. It has a catch on the bottom making it a lot easier to locate the bottom of the ice.With our warmest weather yet (we nearly reached 60 degrees), I had to stick around for sunset.
